Sorry for the very late reply, I haven't checked back in a while! Yeah I got that message with the Chasys install too, but it still worked for me since I have "K-Lite Codec Pack" installed on XP. It just used the LAV codec to generate the thumbnails. A new version has just been released though that has fixed that issue, but just make sure to reboot for the thumbnails to work. I thought it was broken until I went back to the old version and noticed the "Thumbnail Handler" reboot message on install. The new installer missed that notice. It's working much faster now with the internal codec and I don't get a ton of LAV icons popping up in the tray, lol.

I tried a few different browsers, but no it didn't work for me. Ah yeah I'm not sure if Chasys does encoding either, my install currently doesn't, but in my case I'm just looking for decoding anyways. I did try your encoder on a JPG and it worked fine!

It's the latest version of Chasys Draw IES. Oh and it also creates thumbnails for the folder view! It's a bit slow at that for me, but that could be due to which method it uses. It uses the HEVC codec, either an included or installed one.

Thanks for this, user57, I've been searching all over for a way to manage HEIC on XP! On XP Pro x64, I tried the decoding on an iPhone picture, both jpg and png, but sadly it ended up with random line artifacts throughout the picture. I haven't tried it on x86 yet. If it's ok to mention here, I have found another free program that just recently started handling HEIC on XP too. It has an editor, viewer and converter!
